Solar bird repeller - Viano OP-1

How to get rid of the problem of birds destroyingcrops, orchardsor buildings? An excellent solution is to use a solar birdrepellentfrom the Polish company Viano. The device is a modern alternative to the popular scarecrow, but it does not imitate the presence of man - instead, it emits sounds similar to those made by large predatorybirds. A deterrentis anequipmentwhich does not harmanimals, but onlygives them signals which are naturally understood by pigeons, crows or sparrows as a signal suggesting their departure froma given area.

A dartboard imitates the sounds of birds of prey.

Many people with their own buildings, gardens or fields have a problem with the harmfulness ofbirds suchas pigeons, crows, sparrows or starlings. Unfortunately, these animals can generate seriousfinancial lossesby polluting buildings, stealing valuable crops such as cherries and grapes in gardens and orchards or grain in the fields. This is why solutions such as scarecrow are still used. A modern and much more effective way of dealing with bird harm can be theVianosolar scarecrow.

The bracket has already been attached to the deterrent housing.

The bird deterrent is equipped with alarge and powerfulloudspeaker that can protect up to four thousand square metres of land. To ensure that the range of operation can be adjusted, the unit has a built-in potentiometer which affects the volume of emitted signals. It is also worth noting the installed radar (sonar),which can detect movement within a 360° radius forup to12 meters. The scarecrow can work by combining the functionality of two modes: the first one, which is responsible for generating sound signals every specified unit of time (from 1 minute to 120 minutes), and the second one, which starts it after detecting movement in the area.

The device is powered by the mains adapter included in the set.

The device can be used not only to protect buildings from birds, but also in fields and orchards far away from cities. It can be used anywhere, regardless of the availability of electricity - it is only important that the target location provides constant access to sunlight during the day. The idea is that the equipment can recharge the batteries every day using the built-insolar batteries.The amount of energy needed during the day islowdue to the very high performance ofthe deterrent andthanks to saving systems such as the twilight sensor, which stops work in the evening to resume with thesunrise (the vastmajority of birds have a daily life style).

Thanks to additional power supply, the device draws even less electricity from our network.

The device is perfectly adapted todifficultweather conditions experienced in Poland. Thanks to the use of high quality resistant components, the repellent is able to work in temperatures even in frost, from -30°Cup to40°C.

The devices are adapted to work in a wide temperature range.

Thanks to its performance and very good adaptation todifficult conditions,the device is practically completelyautonomous.The set systems switch on automatically and the battery is constantly charged with solar energy. An investment in a bird deterrent ismoneythat will pay for itself very quickly by preventing costly damage.
